In an old resurfaced video, Narayana Murthy, co-founder of Infosys, expressed surprise and disappointment at Bollywood actress Kareena Kapoor's behaviour towards her fans during a flight.
The video, which was part of a conversation at IIT-Kanpur, has since gone viral, drawing attention from fans and the media alike.
HERE'S WHAT HE SAID IN THE VIRAL CLIP
During the conversation, Mr. Murthy recounted an incident where he sat next to Kareena Kapoor on a flight from London. He observed that several fans approached her to say hello, but to his surprise, the actress didn't acknowledge them.
In contrast, Mr. Murthy highlighted how he personally responds warmly to people who approach him, engaging in short conversations with them.
HIS WIFE TRIES DEFENDING KAREENA
Despite his wife, Sudha Murty, trying to offer a defence for Kareena Kapoor, Mr. Murthy continued with his remarks, emphasizing the importance of acknowledging affection shown by fans, even if it is done cryptically. He expressed that these small gestures are valuable in reducing one's ego.
Sudha Murty, acknowledging the vast difference in the number of fans between a software professional like her husband and a Bollywood actor like Kareena Kapoor, reiterated that the actress likely had a million admirers and might have been tired during the flight.
The video generated mixed reactions, with the crowd responding to Sudha Murty's statement with applause and laughter. However, Mr. Murthy stood firm in his belief that regardless of the number of fans, showing appreciation to them was essential.
